I've been courtside with some high level players and everytime they strike the shuttle it sounds like a circusmaster cracking a whip ( That cracking sound!) or like a explosive gunshot!..( That explosive sound!)

That moment is it

pure power ?

Wrist + Power ?

Wrist + power + timing ?

Wrist + power + timing + good footwork ?

Any thoughts on this ? any feedback from national /international players/coaches would be greatly appreciated ?

PS your hear that sound when a goodplayer jumpsmashes properly!

Do a search for "smashing sound" "smash power" "perfect jumpsmash". If you still don't have the results you're looking, start your own thread to have people help you. Just do a search first.

I think the BCCD, Backhand Smash & Backhand Crosscourt Smash ! and who haven't seen a backhand crosscourt smash watch 2007 sudirman cup Taufik H Vs Andrew Smith. He doses a BHCC smash and it was more powerful than most's normal Smash. !! very Frightening!! .. Anyway I Think the most difficult is the BHCC Smash... ( And No i cant do it !!! But i can Dream...LOL

I did tried to attempt a BHCC smash. But it ended on the net. Not as powerful though..

I would say that the most difficult shot for me is the BCCD, because if not performed well, its almost as if giving the point away.

Some talk about smashes, my smash is very hard, and I have only recieved it back a few times, because I worked on my smash when i was still a beginner in badminton. I have never been able to do a standstill smash, I started with the jumpsmash as it came quite naturally. It is by far my best move.

Lately I've been working on my drop, because i had much success with it beforehand, but lately its not working well.

By far my BCCD needs work, I rarely use it, and when I do its always smashed or perfectly placed which makes me lose a point.

Working HHHHHaaarrrdddd!!!!! to master the footwork...and to get that SSSppppeeeeddddd!!!!

We all know its about that basis of fitness and Speed..and fighting to and through that pain..

you may not win every rally or every point but after a few hard rallys in a game the levels of fitness is either 6 -7 point either way...

( you know you want to get to that shuttle one more time, pick up the pace one more time, get behind the birdie one more time, Powersmash one more time, but the body wont let you deliver that last killer blow).
